Yes it does have a great day
The function "choose k from n", nCk, is defined as
nCk = n!/(k!*(n-k)!) . . . . . where "!" indicates the factorial
a) No position sensitivity.
The number of possibilities is the number of ways you can choose 5 players from a roster of 12.
12C5 = 12*11*10*9*8/(5*4*3*2*1) = 792
You can put 792 different teams on the floor.
b) 1 of 2 centers, 2 of 5 guards, 2 of 5 forwards.
The number of possibilities is the product of the number of ways, for each position, you can choose the required number of players from those capable of playing the position.
(2C1)*(5C2)*(5C2) = 2*10*10 = 200
You can put 200 different teams on the floor.
Okay, so the equation for the y-intercept is y=mx+b, this will be your base for graphing anything.
For y = x + 3 it's basically y = 1x + 3. Use b as the y-intercept, or 3, and plot it as (x,y), (0,3). Then use m as the slope, or 1. 1 means positive one so the point goes (0,3), (1, 4), (2, 5).
For y = -3x - 1 it's the same thing but different numbers. Use b, the y-intercept, and plot it. -1 is b, so plot (0,-1). Then use the slope to go up or down the direction you need to go, or m. m is -3, so for every +1 in x, the y will decrease by 3. (0,-1), (0,-4), (0,-7).
I hope this helped in some way or increased your understanding!
